BlackRock raised its holding in Iguatemi preferred shares to 5.019 percent in a filing released on Monday, October 5, 2026, according to El Fondo. As of September 30, the asset manager held 21,852,906 preferred shares and 733,856 cash-settled derivatives tied to the class.

Investment position, not control bid

The derivatives represented 0.169 percent of Iguatemi's preferred-share class. BlackRock said it acted on behalf of clients and that the position was strictly for investment purposes, with no intention of changing Iguatemi's corporate control or administrative structure.

The disclosure reversed a reduction reported days earlier, when BlackRock's holding fell below Brazil's five-percent regulatory reporting threshold. The latest filing therefore returned the investor to reportable ownership without indicating a proposed change in management or control.
